Bleeding brakes

[RS4!!]

I just redid all my brakes (braided lines, caliper rebuild kits,etc) I've bled the brakes out 3 times and they still feel mushy. I also hooked it to vag and cycled the ABS and no change. Anyone fought 4th is battle and won?

Power bleeder?

When changing over to the braids, did you plug up the lines or did the reservoir/master cylinder run dry?

The whole system was bled using a power bleeder.

Did you bleed the inside and outside of the front calipers? There are two separate bleeders.

Are you r calipers on the correct side of the car? Nipples up high.

Start from the farthest caliper out and work in. On the fronts do the inside bleeder first, tap the calipers with a dead-blow mallet to loosen any trapped air bubbles, and if you ran the system dry you may need to cycle the abs module a few times to get all the air out.

Get the inside nipple on the fronts? I’ve seen a few guys miss that one thinking there’s only one on those calipers.
